The Early Bird Gets...Tired...Early...

So, I decided that I was going to reset my "internal clock". At the beginning of the week I told Josh that I was going to begin waking up at 7-730am every morning. 

 

I figured that because so many things were going to be going on this year I should probably just prepare myself for it now. Now for those of you that know me, I am late to bed and...well... late to rise! I enjoy my sleep! 

The main reason I felt the need for this change is because Bing will be starting school this fall, and he also goes to bed pretty late. He wakes up usually around 9am but thats not going to cut it when school roles around. I just knew that I really needed to get him on a different schedule NOW! The other reasons were because I don't like missing out on my mornings, I feel like I get way more done early on than I do as the day goes by, and lately I have a lot to do. Then the fact that little miss Kennadie shall be arriving soon, I already know that she will be changing my sleep schedule. So it was just time!

So back to the actual waking up early part... Well I have been doing pretty awesome if I don't say so myself. I have been pretty strict on myself and just getting out of bed, drinking a cup of coffee, getting ready right away, and then enjoying the rest of my day with my SON. I... also love the fact that because I have been waking up so early, I just fall asleep around midnight (I know, that's not early to most) but being home alone at night I have issues going to sleep and this is helping so much!!! It is also helping my energizer bunny of a child to "knock out" the second his head hits the pillow! Which I love! 

Needless to say I am very proud of myself for accomplishing this task, it might not seem like a big thing to most, but for me it is I am horrible with going to sleep, and then waking up. I needed this change. I just hope that laziness does not overcome me and I can continue this streak.

I know this wasn't much of a post, but I felt the need to gloat and be proud of myself.

One Last Try

I obviously have quite a bit of time on my hand right now, not for long, but at the moment yes! So after seeing a few others start up their blogs, or restart them, I thought I should as well.

Seeing that this year is going to be a big year for our family I think that I will probably have a lot to talk about.


Tomorrow, the 16th, is A milestone I have been waiting for, I will have only 1 month left until Miss Kennadie Berlynn is here! I cannot stress how impatient I am to just have her here. To hold, kiss and love on her! To keep her to myself and share her with the world!

I cannot lie, there are so many selfish reason that I want her here as well, mainly I am so uncomfortable and just dislike the way I feel (and look). I know that being pregnant is supposed to be one of the most enjoyable and beautiful times in your life. And although the end result is more than worth the pain and uncomfortable moments I have to endure I cannot wait to not be pregnant!

Another huge milestone we are quickly approaching is our baby, our only for the last 5 years is going to start kindergarten this year!!!! I cannot believe that this moment has already arrived, its such a cliche to say "it goes by so fast" but it really does! I just never really thought it would go by this fast. His attitude towards the event is going back and forth, somedays he can't wait, and asks how much longer it will be until he starts. Other days he tells me he does not want to go to school, and is NOT going to kindergarten! But I know once the time comes he will love it.

Josh is now working TWO jobs, yes TWO! He is very busy, and even though he is making sure we don't struggle, I HATE it! I hardly see him, and when he is home he is sleeping! So it is hard not being able to spend a lot of quality time with my husband. Its especially hard on Chandler right now, mostly when its bed time. He does not like that he has to go to bed without Daddy tucking him in. I hope that because of the amount of time Josh has to spend away from us that Chandler is not missing out on too much important time with his dad!

I hope this was a good restart for all of you, and just make sure that you all keep me on track! The help will be appreciated!
